Jewellery, clothes, gadgets, perfumes — you’ve gifted all of this and more on Valentine’s Day each year. What could you possibly do this year to outdo yourself? How about this: whisk your partner away on a super-luxurious romantic ride to celebrate the day of love. Don’t own a cool car? No problem, hire one. After all, nothing’s more precious than that smile on your loved one’s face.

Here comes the sun
Make the most of the awesome weather on this special day, and head out. And what could match a romantic mood better than a Volkswagen Beetle! For Rs 20,000 (for 10 hours), hire this cute little bug for the perfect picnic date. And if you want a completely relaxed day-out where you don’t have to worry about a thing, you can ask for a bouquet of flowers and even a picnic hamper to come with the car (charges extra). So just hop in, start up and cruise through a happy sunshine-y day of love.
But if you’d rather prefer a glitzy night about town, then treat yourself to the ultimate speed-style punch with a Mercedes SLK. Pick up your date for a romantic dinner and zip into the night to paint the town red. You can choose to woo your woman with a box of chocolates and raise a toast with the finest champagne (charges extra) as you wrap up the most memorable night of your lives. Pocket pinch: Rs 35,000 for 10 hours. For more details and booking, call car dealers Speed Inc. on 9830073112.

Relive the romance
Take a trip down memory lane — the VVIP way. Make this Valentine’s Day special by hiring a chauffeur-driven BMW 7 sedan and taking your sweetheart to those haunts and hangouts you used to visit when you were dating. And go that extra mile and ask for your favourite flowers, some balloons and even a cake (for an additional Rs 700). Reservations can be made for 10 hours for Rs 25,000 (taxes extra). For booking and more details, call Lemon Car Rentals on 033 6499 0909/ 0908.
Love is in the air
And if this is going to be the day you pop the question, go all out, we say! Sweep her off her feet on a date hundreds of feet above the ground — in a helicopter. Throw in flowers, cakes, fruit champagne, a food hamper or — how’s this for filmy — even those special words written on the runway (that you can see from above), to make sure she can’t refuse. Expect to pay around Rs 45,000 to charter for a minimum of 30 minutes or Rs 22,500 for 15 minutes. Bookings need to be made at least 24 hours in advance. For booking and more details/packages, call Cart Air on 033 3008 4040, or on 9836375575.
